БОБ ОДЕНКЁРК

Улиссу поручено временно занять должность шерифа маленького сонного городка Нормал после безвременной кончины предыдущего. Когда парочка заезжих бандитов ограбила местный банк, главный герой прибывает на место преступления и обнаруживает, что город скрывает зловещие тайны. И теперь Улисс, который до сих пор был сосредоточен только на бегстве от демонов своего прошлого, должен раскрыть весь масштаб заговора.

Why Bob Odenkirk Is Ready to “Get His Ass Handed to Him” Again

Цитата

I’ve only seen a small synopsis of the new film, but it looks like it will be very much in the Nobody wheelhouse.

 

Odenkirk: That’s because the synopsis is so brief, and obviously we don’t want to give anything away. But the first thing I said [to Derek] was, this has an M. Night Shyamalan-kind of level of suspense and mystery. There’s a sustained sequence of figuring out what really is going on, including some major red herrings.

 

Derek, what are you doing differently with this script?

 

Kolstad: What I would say is Normal has everything you might be familiar with from Nobody or the John Wick films because that’s what I am — I  f*cking love those kinds of movies. But if I were to describe Normal, I’d say it was a love letter to Hitchcock and the British crime thrillers I grew up with as a kid, it has the more grounded elements of films from the 1970s. Bob plays Ulysses, an interim sheriff, which I always describe as the substitute teacher of the sheriff’s department. When the real sheriff suddenly dies, he’s brought in take over for a few weeks. Now a lot of small towns like this in the rust belt are mostly empty, storefronts on Main Street are boarded up. But this one is doing quite well. There’s something a little bit off. We see hints and nudges and suggestions throughout that nothing is as it seems. Then, when there’s a bank robbery, all the town’s nasty little secrets spill out and Bob finds himself looking down the barrel.

 

How did you land on Ben Wheatley as a director and what do you think he’ll bring to the project?

 

Kolstad: I’d been introduced to him years ago after he’d done a couple of small horror films, and we just kind of geeked out on the structure of those kinds of movies, these Brit crime thrillers. And what Ben brings is, he’s not just a director, he’s a writer, he’s an editor, he’s a DP. His notes are about what this film should sound like, how it should look, should feel, how it should smell! That, ultimately, is helping us pour the foundation before the first day shooting.

 

Odenkirk: I think Ben’s going to bring mood and character and a sensitivity to the directing. Action films often times don’t need sensitivity. They can be shot in a textbook way, and that’s fine if that’s what you’re asking from them. This one is going to be elevated by someone who cares about character on the level that Ben does, which you can see in a movie of his like Free Fire or so many others, which are so much about character. This film has a slow burn to it, and that’s an attraction for him — to be able to gently, carefully unpeel the character of all the people in this town, one by one.
